From mid-November 2017 I attended a one month buddhist meditation course at Kopan Monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal. The sell-out course brings people, young and old, from many backgrounds, from all corners over the world to its open doors. It is a very special course to say the least, and it is a truly unique experience. During the course we followed a strict schedule to learn Buddhist philosophies and meditation techniques to help understand our minds and the world around us.

This is an article about my journey working for the Australian based startup; SafetyCulture. For four years I worked at SafetyCulture and saw it grow from 8 people in the founder’s garage to 140 across offices in Townsville, Sydney, Manchester, Kansas, and Manila. I worked for SafetyCulture from when I was 23 to 27.
